Description
Virtual card deck — shuffle, draw, and manage playing cards via the Deck of Cards API
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do exactly what it claims: call a remote Deck-of-Cards service. Before installing, confirm you trust gateway.pipeworx.io/pipeworx.io (it will receive any request payloads and return card images), and be aware the MCP example would pull mcp-remote from npm if used — so ensure npx/npm usage is acceptable in your environment. If you want tighter safety, limit the agent's network access or review traffic to the gateway to ensure no sensitive data is sent. The small inconsistency about `npx` being referenced but not declared is worth checking with the skill author if you plan to run the MCP helper.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: pipeworx-deckofcards
Version: 1.0.0
The skill provides a virtual card deck interface by wrapping a remote API hosted at gateway.pipeworx.io. It uses standard tools like curl and mcp-remote for interaction, and the SKILL.md documentation contains clear, non-malicious instructions for managing decks and drawing cards.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the runtime instructions: SKILL.md only calls a Deck-of-Cards JSON-RPC gateway and documents deck operations. Declared required binary (curl) is appropriate for the provided examples.
Instruction Scope
Instructions only show POSTs to https://gateway.pipeworx.io/deckofcards/mcp to create/draw/shuffle decks — scope matches purpose. Minor inconsistency: the MCP config example invokes `npx mcp-remote@latest`, which would require npm/node tooling and pulls code from npm but `npx`/npm are not listed in required bins; this is an example but worth noting.
Install Mechanism
No install spec and no code files — instruction-only skill. This is low-risk; nothing is downloaded or written to disk by the skill package itself.
Credentials
No environment variables, credentials, or config paths are requested. The skill communicates with an external API but does not request keys or secrets in its metadata.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill is user-invocable; it does not request elevated or persistent platform privileges.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install pipeworx-deckofcards - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/pipeworx-deckofcards - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
